After 25 mins on hold 
About losing Sky sports news as I watch that alot...
Without me even asking they have
Reduced my monthly bill from £63 to £56 on TV/BB/Phone
put my telly package to the large package insted of meduim package (150ch)
Gave me All the movie channels also...
And this is forever not 6 month deal etc
so quite pleased with that I think....
Also she said they are still trying to get Sky one etc back too..

i complained earlier and got the xtra large TV package as well but only for 6 months, was told to ring back after that and they would do something else free, so got all channels plus 2mb broadband for £20 - bargain!!!

I'm happy with that for the now anyway...
Always had sky before except in this house as there is no BT line and at the time you couldn't have Sky without the Bt line (u can now I think)
It also kept everything together phone/BB and TV...
never buy a bush

Who's going to use Virgin TV now anyway? No Sky channels and most of them are the only ones worth watching.

not true...
Only channels I haven't got is
Sky one - never watched it much
Sky news - never watched it
Sky sports news - will miss it.
Got all the sports 1,2,3 and extra
all the movie channels
all the music channels etc..
150 channels in total..
And that price includes the line rental for phone aswell CorsaB4ever..
Anyway I am quite happy with the channels I have now for the price, only thing i will miss is SSN...
